US gold reserves have never been this small relative to government debt:
Gold reserves now reflect just 3% of US federal debt, one of the lowest readings on record.
This comes despite the US holding 8,133.5 metric tons of gold, the largest stockpile in the world, and prices surging to record highs.
By comparison, the ratio was ~18% in 1980, or 6x higher.
At the same level of reserves, gold prices would have to rise +400%, to $26,000/oz, to match the 1980s peak.
Meanwhile, in the 1940s, gold reserves backed over 50% of federal debt.
To match the 1940s ratio, gold would need to surge +1,340% to ~$75,000/oz.
Gold reserves are highlighting just how astronomical US debt has become.

This is not receiving enough attention:
Qatar is the world's 2nd-largest helium producer, supplying ~33% of global output, at 63 million cubic meters in 2025.
When Qatar's Ras Laffan facility, the world's largest LNG export plant, shut down due to the Iran war, helium supply was cut, as helium is extracted as a byproduct of natural gas processing.
As a result, the market is now losing ~5.2 million cubic meters of helium per month, with almost no spare capacity globally, as helium evaporates during storage and must reach end users within ~45 days.
The disruption has already DOUBLED helium prices since the Iran war began.
If disruptions last 60 to 90 days, prices could surge another +25% to +50%, potentially exceeding $2,000 per thousand cubic feet, over 4 times early 2026 levels.
The Iran war is disrupting far more than oil and gas.

"Porn featuring violence against women is also extremely popular among women. It is far more popular among women than men. I hate saying that because misogynists seem to love this fact. Fantasy life isn't always politically correct."
